💥What an INCREDIBLE day! We couldn’t be prouder of our Girls Into Coding community! Despite the rainy weather, engineering rail works, road closures, and train delays on Sunday, nothing could stop them from joining our Girls Into Coding Bootcamp. They showed up with enthusiasm and enjoyed a day packed with hands-on tech, engineering, and creative-making activities! 🙏🏾 A huge thank you to Do it Now Now and Plus X Innovation for their invaluable support in helping us drive our mission forward. A special shoutout to Vera Santos from Plus X Innovation for the amazing assistance throughout the day, and to Jacob for being on call! Big thanks to our mentors, volunteers, the girls themselves, and all the parents who made this event so special. Thank you for being part of this journey! #tech #engineering #coding #design #womenintechandengineering

About us
Avye is a 17-year-old student and passionate about STEM. In 2018, Avye, already a coder, maker, and workshop leader came up with the idea of organising coding events for girls, after repeatedly observing that most attendees at her workshops were boys. She was determined to encourage more girls to give STEM a go. As a result, she decided to set up ‘Girls Into Coding’, a series of events targeting girls. Girls into Coding provides learning opportunities for girls between the ages of 10 and 14. We’ve created workshops and education events to immerse young people in a range of STEM activities. We are driven to engage at least 1000 girls every year with unique hands-on workshops in physical computing, coding, robotics, 3D design & 3D printing, alongside inspiring talks from women and girls doing cool stuff in STEM. Girls into Coding is a Community Interest Company (CIC) and is regulated by the CIC regulator. We are a rare mother and daughter led Social Enterprise. Since July 2018, seven hugely successful events have been delivered. These events and Avye’s passion for tech provided the inspiration to launch Girls into Coding as a Community Interest Company (CIC). We are driven to create opportunities to engage girls to consider STEM education and careers through hands-on workshops and events. We are fully committed to delivering our Girls Into Coding’s objectives. We have been committed to doing this both face to face and virtually.
